Slow Battery Charging Procedure

1. Appearance check:

^ If the battery case is cracked or the terminals damaged, replace the battery.

2. Electrolyte Level check (if applicable):

^ Remove the vent caps with a suitable tool. Add distilled water to the "MAX" level.

3. Requirement: Initial rate of charge is 10 Amps for twelve (12) hours.

CAUTIONS:

^ Continue charging for twelve (12) hours, even though the current will decrease as the battery charges.

^ Charge battery one at a time. Do not charge batteries in a parallel circuit.

^ During charging, keep open flames away from the battery.

^ When connecting the charger, connect the leads first; then turn on the charger.

^ Stop charging if the battery electrolyte temperature exceeds 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
